The letter F designates a valve ndaptci'l to clos'c'on a beveled scat, g", over the vertical portion of the T-coupliug, as shown in Fig. 3, and shut oil the supply of steam to the oven. By means of this valve it will be obvious that the supply ot steam to the oven through the pipes E may be regulated to suit 1 he character of cooking (.lesir'e .l.

The letter I. designates an attachment adapted for heating cMTec-pofs or other vessels bysteam from the cooker. 'lhis attachment consists, preferably, of a circular pan, P, provided with a central depressed portion, I, into which is extended the upper end of a supporting-pipe, Q, this pipe Q being provided with a regulating-cock, Q, and connnnnicating wit-h the steain-chaml'ier b of the cooker. When a vessel is se in the pan 'l" and the cock Q is opened, the steam will pass into and completely fill the depressed portion P, and thus be brought into direct contact with the vessel to be heated.

If I mount my improved cooker upon an ordinary cooking-stovc, it is evident that it may be of such shape as to be fitted into the elliptical or circular holes of the stove or to rest upon the top plate thereof. I thus obtain dry heat, the temperature of which is regulated by the ordinary dampers and registers of such a stove. I also utilize this dry heat for the production of steam and conduct the steam, in regulated quantities and degrees of heat, directly into thc oven E for cooking by moist heat, from which oven the heated 4o gases, frimes, &c., are or may be carried into the fire-box of the common heater or stove. I have provided an ordinary safety-valve or flow-oil, R, which is automatic in operation, for regulating the steam-pressure between the walls A B of the cooker.

.llaving thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, ;is-

1. The combination of the casing A of th cooker, the oven B, somewhat smaller than the casing and inserted in one side of the said cooker, whereby a water and steam space is formed around'the oven, the said casing and oven having formed through their bottoms a flanged passage, E, a perforated diaphragm, E, inserted in the said passage, a flanged removable cover, E, placed over the said passage, and valved steanrconducting pipes connecting the steam-space of the cooker with the ovcn,.subst-antiall-y as described.

2. The combination of the casing, the oven B, smaller than the casing and inserted in one side of the cooker, whereby a water and steam space is formed around the oven, the said 65 casing and oven having formed through their bottoms a flanged passagqa removable cover placed over the said passage, and valved steam-cond uct-ing pipes conn acting thestcamspace of the cooker with the oven, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
